Shop the full range of countertop wash basins at SG Appliances, from sleek art basins to classic ceramic bowls. A countertop basin sits on top of your vanity or counter, making a stylish statement and pairing beautifully with a tall mixer tap. It is one of the easiest ways to refresh a bathroom, and it drops onto almost any flat surface.
What is a countertop basin?
A countertop basin (also called an above-counter or vessel basin) rests on top of the counter rather than being set into it. Only a small drain hole is needed through the surface, so it is simple to install and works on stone, solid-surface, timber or laminate counters alike. The raised bowl becomes an eye-catching feature of the bathroom.
Why choose a countertop basin?
Countertop basins are the most design-led option, available in striking art shapes, colours and finishes that turn the basin into a centrepiece. They are also the easiest type to retrofit, since the counter does not need a large cut-out, ideal for an update without major works.
Do I need a special tap?
Because the bowl sits above the counter, a countertop basin usually pairs with a taller tall-body basin mixer, so the water clears the rim and falls cleanly into the bowl. Browse our basin taps for a matching finish.
Which size and shape should I pick?
Choose a basin that fits your counter with room around it for everyday use, in a shape (round, oval, rectangular or an art design) that suits your style. Most of our countertop basins are easy-clean glazed ceramic in white, matt and designer tones.
